Connecticut Conditions of Use

In 1998 the State of Connecticut enacted legislation mandating that the Department of Public Safety establish and maintain a central registry of sex offenders. The legislation requires that registry information be made available to the public through the Internet and at each local police department or State Police troop. The Sex Offender Registry Unit of the Connecticut State Police maintains the registry from the Department of Public Safety Headquarters in Middletown Connecticut.

The Department of Public Safety updates this information regarding convicted sex offenders regularly, making every effort at accuracy. However, this information can change quickly and the records available on the National Sex Offender Public Registry may not represent the entire list of registered sex offenders in Connecticut. You are cautioned that the address and some of the information provided is information provided by the registrant, and may not reflect the current residence, status, or other information regarding an offender. Registrants are required to notify the Department of Public Safety Sex Offender Registry Unit of a change of address within 5 days of such change and verify their residential address every 90 days or they may be subject to arrest for a class "D" felony.

A summary of the registration requirements for registered offenders may be obtained by contacting the Connecticut Department of Public Safety Sex Offender Registry Unit 1111 Country Club Road Middletown, CT 06457 or by phone at 860-685-8060.

WARNING:

"ANY PERSON WHO USES INFORMATION IN THIS REGISTRY TO INJURE, HARASS OR COMMIT A CRIMINAL ACT AGAINST ANY PERSON INCLUDED IN THE REGISTRY OR ANY OTHER PERSON IS SUBJECT TO CRIMINAL PROSECUTION."

Policy Statement on Sex Offender Registration:

The Department of Public Safety has not considered or assessed the specific risk of re-offense with regard to any individual prior to his or her inclusion within this registry, and has made no determination that any individual included in the Registry is currently dangerous. Individuals included within the registry are included solely by virtue of their conviction record and state law.

If you have information that differs from information found on the Connecticut Sex Offender Registry website please contact the Sex Offender Registry Unit at: sex.offender.registry@po.state.ct.us or confidentially by phone at (860) 685-8060
